Materials and Method:Two studies were performed because the behavioral audiometric information was not available from infants and young children. In the first study, a retrospective analysis was performed for 36 children (mean age:3 years 4 months) who had completed auditory brainstem response (ABR) and pure tone audiometry to verify that ABR threshold is a good predictor for pure tone threshold in our laboratory. The ABR thresholds to, 1 Hz tone-pip and click were compared with behavioral thresholds. In the second study, a prospective analysis of 23 children (mean age:12 months), the ABR thresholds to, 1 Hz tone-pip and click were compared with ASSR thresholds to amplitude and frequency modulated tones. Results:The first study in which strong correlations were found between ABR and pure tone thresholds (r 0.92) demonstrated that ABR thresholds could be used to predict the pure tone thresholds. The second study which showed that ASSR thresholds were highly correlated with ABR thresholds (r 0.93) indicated that ASSR thresholds provided reliable audiometric information in infants and young children. Conclusion:These studies showed that ASSR could be used to estimate hearing thresholds with reliable accuracy in infants and young children.
